i have a 87' 5.0 GT i was wondering what i should do to it to make a 11 sec. car?
i have 4:10's, 90mm mass air conversion, 65mm TB, off-road h-pipe flowmaster, MSD 6A ,frame ties, bbk progressive lowering springs, timing advanced 15 degrees,under-drive pulleys, electric fan, 30lbs. injectors.

i am a machinist so i do a lot of my own work like the 90mm mass air, and the 65mm TB.

What times are you getting now. Low 14s possibly. Some of the other folks can help you better then I. I have a carburated 84. Is sounds like your asking a lot for a little ford. Supercharger perhaps?????

5 speed? With slicks and good driving mid 13s won't be a problem. A nitrous kit and a set of heads will get you in the 11s.

^^ The cheapest way would definetly be a nice shot and a pair of slicks. But if you want power all the time and not just on the bottle... a entry level blower with some upgrades and a decent h/c/i will be able the same... so you decide! Just remember though, you can get a Novi 1000 for like $1700-1800 and put on a 8'' Cracnk pulley and a power pipe and pull 9psi out of it... than would put you into the 11's with ease! And you could actually put that big ass maf to use lol
